“…The effectiveness of various tools for the capture or lethal control of invasive brown treesnakes depends largely on detectability or targetability; that is, given a quantified level of effort, what is the probability of detecting, capturing, or killing an individual snake within the activity area? Effectiveness of visual surveys, trapping, and toxic bait tools for brown treesnake control has been demonstrated to be influenced by internal factors (sex, size, and body condition) and external factors (availability of alternative prey; Gragg et al., ; Rodda, Savidge, Tyrrell, Christy, & Ellingson, ; Tyrell et al., ; Christy, Yackel Adams, Rodda, Savidge, & Tyrrell, ; Lardner et al., ; Christy, Savidge, Yackel Adams, Gragg, & Rodda, ; Siers, Savidge, & Reed, ). These factors have also been indicated to influence brown treesnake movement characteristics (Santana‐Bendix, ; Tobin, Sugihara, Pochop, & Linnell, ; Siers, Reed, & Savidge, ; Christy et al., ).…”
